Modern Jive Cartoon / Facebook Dance Cartoon Project

Following on from the previous post here's the first cartoon from the Facebook Dance Cartoon Project. Dancer Steve was kind enough to send me a photo having hit 'like' on the Strictly Dance Fun facebook page.

I've used the photo as inspiration for this cartoon. The idea behind the Facebook Dance Cartoon Project is to create artwork inspired by photos of dancers. The drawings are not intended to be portraits or caricatures though there may in some cases be a resemblance to the people involved.

In this case the dancers were not in classic rock and roll outfits, but I felt the switch to more nostalgic garb suited the pose. This has been created using a combination of copic markers, biro, and colored pencils.
